identity
 
I definitly agree. Identity is a unique movie. I think it an original piece, unlike most now of days. It definitly blew my mind at the ending, because by the time the ending came around I forgot about the kid.

It was a great movie great twists to it. I have to admit I was confused.

I loved Identity. Nobody else seemed to like it so much.

Loved it. Nice to see an original story once in a while.

I liked Identity too. The only problem was they tell you it's all in the guy's head too soon. Although I liked the twist at the very end, it seemed pointless to go back to the "hotel" for the last few deaths after you know it isn't real. For me, because of that, I pretty much didn't care about those people anymore. I mean, the death scene of the film's hero (Cusack) is suppose to be a dramatic and sad scene for the audience. Unfortunately, it didn't do anything for me because at that point we already knew none of it was real. Better editing probably could've made the film more effective. But overall, I still liked it.

it was a pleasant suprise for me too ..
I enjoyed it .. very origional which is a rare quality in itself ..

Sedated_replica 11-02-2004 08:36 PM

Sorry, I Thought it was retarded. The ending was crap, like a stephen King ending.. A little kid can't be a serial killer, unless I missed something. it was soo stupid

deftones6 11-02-2004 08:50 PM

gotta love cusack
 
yes, Identity rocked. Yes, Cusack and Liotta are hotties, but let's nto forget the movie is not totally A+. For one thing this kid...what ever the hell his nae was...oh my god "Whore's don't get a second chance." Why how costructive of you Timmy, you're all of 6 and you're developing your own philosophies on life? Great. It's another Little Man Tate, only with weapons. The movie was great up until the ending. Wow, who would stop from laughing when they flashback the montage of all the damage little Timmy did? My favorite is when they would cue in on his face alone and he tried to put on this "I'm really sick like that guy from the movie Love Object" look. it's so chucklehouse. but besides that it was good.

Ever heard of the movie Halloween ?

and it wasnt even a little kid .. it was a personality.
I think you missed a lot ... how does that make a movie stupid ?

wicked good point there. his mentality was like that of a child.....it adds a creepy element to it. i have to say. Same with let's say Jason....hmm how old was he when he died? like 10? 12? He still thought in that manner too, only a tad more sadistic. The fact that the kid is the killer isn't dumb. He could have been the killer no problem, but I wish they would have planned it out better.

yes but a dead hottie....if you remember "Whore's don't get a second chance." Oh jesus, that is still the worst line in the whole film.

Hate_Breeder 11-03-2004 06:17 PM

I thought it was a great movie. I loved Ray Liotta...Hell i love Ray Liotta in all his movies though.

Good story line and it was something new at that time. Also the fat guy who was also on Trapped is an excellent actor

horrorgirl7734 11-05-2004 09:32 AM

YAY this is a great movie. I wish that I could watch it again for the first time so that I don't know the ending. I remember going on i get it. Then 10 minutes later. Fuck that wasn't it. I didn't think that it was all that predictable.

Love,

He looked a bit older than 12 when he died. More like in his 20's
